  • Gamematz

    On the videos that I have posted for Star Wars Armada, you may have noticed the starfield game mat that has been used.  This is a product from a company named Gamematz (www.gamematz.com), from which I have started to order various gaming covers.  The big advantage I found with Armada is that they not only…

  • New consideration for the painting projects

    If you have been a follower of this site (not sure those exist), then you may have read a couple weeks ago that I was inspired to start painting miniatures again with my recent purchase of Zombicide: Black Plague.  I even went so far as to create a subject-specific YouTube channel to create and post…

  • Video editing

    Finally working on the latest round of Pathfinder videos, despite my chronic procrastination.  Unfortunately, it is a long process, so best case would be to finish the first video by tomorrow.  More than likely it will be Friday instead, or Saturday.  Then I have content from Zombicide to do as well, though that one isn’t…

  • Imperial Quasar Fire-class cruiser located

    Previously missing in action, when the local game store failed to get their shipment on time, the new Imperial Quasar Fire-class cruiser carrier has finally been located.  An unusual ship in terms of looks, it is part of the latest release for Star Wars: Armada, and balances out the fleets with the Rebel options.  Overall,…

  • RuneWars Miniatures

  • Active weekend

    Lots of plans for this weekend, for what was supposed to have been relatively quiet.  Fortunately, most are what I would consider fun activities, so not a big concern.  Tonight we head down to the summer camp to visit my son, who has been at camp all week.  Should be a good moral booster for…

  • Video challenges

    So here I am on my latest round of work-related travel, when I discover that my intended video sync-up on my laptop did not take place as planned.  As a result, I am stuck downloading the 22 GB file over hotel wi-fi from my home server.  Not a good start to my attempt to get…
